Professional weed removal from paving - weeds pulled, roots removed, and regrowth treated. Your driveway, patio, or paths looking properly maintained instead of overgrown.

The Gradual Takeover

Weeds start in the cracks and joints. One small weed becomes a forest. Before long, your paving looks abandoned even when everything else is tidy.

💡 Pro tip: Deal with weeds before they flower and set seed. Waiting makes next year's problem worse.

🔧 DIY Tips

Clearing weeds from paving yourself? Here's the approach:

🔧 What you'll need

  • Weeding tool or old knife
  • Stiff brush
  • Weedkiller (optional)
  • Kiln-dried sand (block paving)

📐 Clearing steps

  1. Pull all visible weeds
  2. Scrape out joints
  3. Brush away debris
  4. Apply treatment if using
  5. Re-sand block paving joints

⚠️ Common issues

  • Missing roots (regrows fast)
  • Treating too early (rain washes off)
  • Skipping re-sanding
  • Leaving pulled weeds on paving

💡 Pro trick: Do it after rain - weeds pull easier with wet roots. But let it dry before applying any treatment.

Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the weeds come back?

Some regrowth is inevitable - seeds blow in, roots can remain deep. Treatment helps delay regrowth. Regular maintenance (annually or more) keeps paving looking good.

Do you just pull or use weedkiller too?

We pull and clear first, then can apply treatment to prevent regrowth. Treatment is optional but recommended. Organic and chemical options available.

Is block paving harder?

Block paving often has more weed growth because of the many joints. Takes longer to clear but responds well to treatment. Re-sanding after helps prevent regrowth.

Can you do this with pressure washing?

Yes - often done together. Pressure wash clears moss and dirt, then weed removal tackles what's left in the joints. Good combination for full paving restoration.
